Japanese astronaut Sochi Noguchi took this
iconic picture of the
Space Shuttle Atlantis over the Atlantic Ocean and the island of Tenerife. The picure was taken from the
International Space Station on Sunday, May 16 2010 at 10:28 am EDT (1428 GMT) while the Atlantis was getting ready for docking. At that time the ISS was about 350 km above the ground. This was the flight before the last one for the shuttle. In the highest resolution, the white towers of the solar telescopes at the
Observatorio del Teide (
IAC) are visible between the clouds. To help your eyes, I took a snapshot from the Google Maps: look for the distinctive dark patches in the NASA picture, the towers are tiny white dots just above them.
